Difficult to watch, but excellent portrait of an era where denial was the best crime policy.
Some scenes are gruesome and disturbing, but crime, specially, serial crime is not glamorous.

Set in the 60s. It's a true story of a Hungarian serial killer and the case for finding him. Some is so sad because he seems to be killing some girls who consider him a friend. This one is very well done. Loved it.
Saw this on a rented dvd few days back. The trailer n premise was intriguing for me. Definitely for blokes who liked Marshland, Memories of murder n True Detective. It is about a sick n pervert serial killer n also about an innocent man who is put behind bars for the murders. The film explains the actions n consequences of both these men.
Warning, this film is very grisly n the necrophiliac scenes r explained in details rather than off screen which i wud have preferred. Also the male rape n torture scenes were too much. I feel the director went overboard with the grisly scenes but he did a terrific job in making a good serial killer film.
The night time photography is striking. It is eerie n atmospheric. The direction, acting n cinematography r all good but they needed some work on the editing.
What a surprise!
9+, this movie is well scripted.
sex is Not gratuitous, as each scenes reinforce the whole.
better then Hannibal or se7en as it feel real and complicate ,
lots of psychological revelations by the end, what a great Film.
I just want to congratulate all the creators of this movie.
It kept my attention from the first second to the last and never ceased to be interesting throughout the movie.
Well done!
